We prove a simple inequality for a sum of squares of norms of two vectors in an inner product space. Next, using this inequality we derive the so--called "reverse uncertainty relation" and analyze its properties.
Fitting mixture distributions is needed in applications where data belongs to inhomogeneous populations comprising homogeneous sub-populations. The mixing proportions of the sub populations are in general unknown and need to be estimated as…

We consider Gibbs measures on the configuration space $S^{\mathbb{Z}^d}$, where mostly $d\geq 2$ and $S$ is a finite set. We start by a short review on concentration inequalities for Gibbs measures. In the Dobrushin uniqueness regime, we…
We study distributional similarity measures for the purpose of improving probability estimation for unseen cooccurrences. Our contributions are three-fold: an empirical comparison of a broad range of measures; a classification of similarity…

We consider inhomogeneous Bernoulli measures of the form $\prod_{x\in\Lambda} p_x$ where $p_x$ are prescribed and uniformly bounded above and below away from 0 and 1. A comparison inequality is proved between the Kawasaki and…

In this paper, we propose a test for the equality of multiple distributions based on kernel mean embeddings. Our framework provides a flexible way to handle multivariate or even high-dimensional data by virtue of kernel methods and allows…
We conjecture that the set of homogeneous probability measures on the maximal Satake compactification of an arithmetic locally symmetric space $S=\Gamma\backslash G/K$ is compact. More precisely, given a sequence of homogeneous probability…
In this paper, we study the inequality indices for some models of wealth exchange. We calculated Gini index and newly introduced k-index and compare the results with reported empirical data available for different countries. We have found…
Given a surface $M$ and a Borel probability measure $\nu$ on the group of $C^2$-diffeomorphisms of $M$, we study $\nu$-stationary probability measures on $M$. We prove for hyperbolic stationary measures the following trichotomy: either the…

The BKR inequality conjectured by van den Berg and Kesten in [11], and proved by Reimer in [8], states that for $A$ and $B$ events on $S$, a finite product of finite sets $S_i,i=1,\ldots,n$, and $P$ any product measure on $S$, $$ P(A \Box…
Matrix concentration inequalities provide information about the probability that a random matrix is close to its expectation with respect to the $l_2$ operator norm. This paper uses semigroup methods to derive sharp nonlinear matrix…
